With a walkability score of 79, you will have easy access to all the Charming shops and restaurants right in the neighborhood. There is a 180 degree view from the rear windows, overlooking the Carquinez Strait, the Benicia Bridge, and the Martinez Youth Ballfields. Enjoy sitting on porch in the front of the home, or having a barbecue on the back Terrace, with a "FUEGO" outdoor kitchen. The house itself, has leaded glass windows, Real wood flooring, trim and Wainscoting- a throwback to an age when homes were built by artisans and craftspeople. The walls are Lath-and-Plaster, not sheetrock, making it warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Another feature, is a full basement, with lots of storage or room for a shop, or POSSIBLE extra room. There is a full, formal dining room as well as a breakfast room. and an office off the primary bedroom. There is also a downstairs bedroom. The home appears to be built of full-sawn redwood, making it resistant to termites and moisture damage. This unique home simply stands out among the "Cookie Cutter" homes in the area- a must see.
